God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen Songtext
von Deas Vail

God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan′s power
When we were gone astray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy!
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!

From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name
Oh tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy!
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!


Mm oh
Mm oh
Mm oh

And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear Savior lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
Oh tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy!
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!

Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmastime
All others doth deface.
Oh tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy!
Oh tidings of comfort and joy!
